About Craft Space Collective
We believe that creativity is fundamental to a life well lived, and here's where it all started.
Fiona and Jake are two creatives local to Hounslow, West London. We teamed up in 2024 to create Craft Space Collective because we love to make things and find such peace and meaning in doing so.
We believe that arts and crafts can and should be more accessible to all. Our dual experiences working in the NHS span social work, peer work and recovery education, both working with adults with mental health difficulties.
Fiona's experience as a jewellery designer and print maker join Jake's experiences as a painter and crafter to bring the joy and meaning of crafts to all.
We run commissioned workshops that are free at the point of access where possible, and open to all. We are fully public liability insured and DBS checked as required. We have a small team of friends and associates who are equally skilled and experienced who we are insured to employ on a sessional basis.
No craft experience is too large or too small for us to contemplate offering - please get in touch and we will help you.
The Story of Craft Space
Once upon a time in Hillingdon Fiona was working as a Senior Peer Support Worker and brought her love for arts and crafts to the community by running a group called Craft Space. Jake was a newly qualified Social worker at the time who joined Fiona in making lavender sleep pads with the adults we worked with.
This is the continuation of that passion and drive to bring easy to make cheap accessible arts and crafts to disadvantaged minorities and isolated communities. Reducing loneliness and bringing the joy of colour and creativity to the greyness of everyday life in today's society is our joy to offer to you.
